ƽWARNING: Setup up the rotisserie with food before
lighting rotisserie burner.
OPERATING
1) Remove rotisserie shaft from grill. Remove one spit fork.
2) Push the rotisserie shaft through the center of the food.
3) Slide the spit fork onto the shaft. Insert the tines of both spit forks into
the food. The food should be centered on the shaft. Tighten the spit fork
screws
4) Place the motor in the bracket, slide to lock.
5) Insert the pointed end of the rotisserie shaft into the motor. Place the
handle end of the rotisserie onto the support rollers.
6) The rotisserie shaft should rotate so that the heavy side of the meat or
poultry rotates down to the bottom. Large cuts may require the removal
of the cooking grates and warming rack to allow full rotation of the shaft.
Remount the food if necessary for better balance.
7) Turn the motor on.
COOKING
• Meats (except poultry and ground meat) should be brought to room
temperature before cooking. (20 to 30 minutes should be adequate for
most foods. If frozen defrost completely before cooking.)
• Tie meat or poultry with a string, if necessary, to make the shape as
uniform as possible before putting it on the spit.
• Remove cooking grates and warming rack to allow food to turn freely.
• Follow lighting instructions for rotisserie burner on next page.
• Set rotisserie burner on Med-High based on outside air temperatures.
• Place food within area of burner.
• If you wish to save drippings for gravy, place a drip pan directly under
the food on top of the Flavorizer
®
bars.
• Food preparation steps are the same for rotisserie cooking as for
regular cooking. Indicated timing in the cookbook will be the same.
• All cooking is done with the lid closed.
• If foods are too heavy or are irregular shapes, they may not rotate
well and should be cooked by the Indirect Method without using the
rotisserie.
• Smoker can be used in conjunction with rotisserie for more smoke
fl avor.
Note - When using the rotisserie burner, grill thermometer will not refl ect the
temperature inside the cooking box.
